Mission Statement:
I LOVE RESIDENT EVIL! But its extermely annoying have to play through
the game 5 or 6 times over, and not being allowed
to use First-Aid Sprays, to save game, or to stop for even a second
to enjoy the FMVs or the graphics or atmosphere
because of some stupid 2 hour time limit just to unlock rocket launcher
or enjoy some cool alternate costumes.
It makes the game unfun in a lot of ways and hex editing fixes this! Now
you can see all the cool secret weapons without all
the taxing conditions you have to fulfill! Enjoy true SURVIVAL HORROR the
way YOU WANT! Yay! (I Colt S.A.A-ed my way
through my game w00t! Cowgirl Style!)
=======================================================================
Updates:
6/10/2004 - Found the Address for editing the number of saves you have,
allowing the player to manipulate their rank yay! (220)
6/10/2004 - Added more character specific traits to weapon codes.
========================================================================
First off you need a hex editor, I recommend the Hex Editor by HHD. Okay
so here we go:
Since all Resident Evil 2 save files are 2 KB, they are easy as heck to
edit and are all the same YAY!
1. Go to your save game directory which should be something like:
C:\Program Files\CAPCOM\RESIDENT EVIL2
2. Open up the save file you wish to edit. Example if you are playing
the Leon CD then the file would be
something like Leon A_01_Hall.RESIDENT2 (which would be a file saved
for the first time in RPD Police Main Hall,
playing as Leon, Scenario A)
3. Okay so open up the hex file with whatever editor you have and you
should see a bunch of gibberish divided into
2 sections. On the left side of the screen or in the hex subwindow you
should see something like:
53 43 11 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 21 04
d5 29 93 21 0d 15 57 3a 0a 19 55 3a e9 10 8e 21 85 08 ad 31 83 1c 26 4d 4a
31 3f 04 dd 9c 99 a8 11 aa 1a dd cd 6b 92 a8 11 86 aa da 9d 26 89 11 11 aa
a8 1a 6d 92 18 8a aa 1a a8 11 ed 82 a1 44 44 a8 1a 11 ed 88 4a 34 43 84 1a
Okay now on the right side of you should see lots of periods and weird symbols,
don't worry about those.
4. Now look at the bottom of the screen and you see an address which
tells where your typing cursor is blinking over like
look at the example at top the first numbers are 53 so the 5 is 00000000
of 00000800 and the 3 is 00000001 of 00000800.
5. Scroll down until you get to 00000598 of 00000800
(or whatever 00001000 it doesnt matter),
this is slot 1 of your inventory. If this is first save,
you probably have the handgun in that slot, so you should see
(according to the chart belong) 02 which the code for Leon's handgun
now look at the next pair of numbers, thats the ammo amount in hex code,
to find out the normal number open up your
calculator on the computer and punch in your hex numbers, so if you have
9 bullets loaded in the handgun then the pair of
numbers will display 09, if you (Somehow) have 171 bullets
loaded you will see ab. Once again don't worry about it,
just use the calculator. Type in the pair of hex codes and then change the
calculator setting from Hex to Dec, then you
will get the real amount.
6. The way this works is: let's say you want the custom magnum
with infinite rounds, so go to 00000598 and type in
06, then move to the right and as the next pair of numbers put in ff
(Which is equal to 255 and is the value for infinite
in hex pair coding). So you will end up with: 06 ff, now THIS IS VERY
IMPORTANT THE SLOTS ARE SEPARATED BY TWO PAIRS of
numbers so if you have the Shotgun with 3 shells, then the Rocket Launcher
with 40 rockets then infinite ink ribbons
the code will be:
07 03 00 00 11 28 00 00 1e ff then two PAIRS OF ZEROS then the next item,
remember you only have 8 slots.
I am not puting in any more codes unless I get seriously begged, if you
have freaking infinite ammo go find the keys
yourselves! Feel free to experiment but be beware that theres only so many
items and if you enter some weird values:
I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WAY.
Also, trying to equip a Claire only weapon as Leon will CRASH YOUR GAME.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, those sprites DON'T EXIST!
Notes:
000005b4 of 00000800 or 00001000 is slot 8
000005c0 - Personal Slots (Lighter/Lockpick/Family Picture/G-virus/etc.)
000005c4 - Crate Slots begin
00000220 - Number of times you have saved.
Slot Code ff = 255 for items and the infinite number for ammo
Remember to play Claire scenarios with the ClaireU.exe and Leon's
with the LeonU.exe! And to set compatability to 98/ME or 95
for XP users!

edit other games drop an email off at m50blue@hotmail.com
I'm planning to make an RE fan site to test how
deep you are into RE with questions like
Who was Lisa Trevor's Mother? (Jessica Trevor)
and
Where is the Square Crank found in REmake (lol) (in Lisa's
Cabin in the woods)
and
some easier ones like
Who invented the G-virus (William and Annette Birkin)
Feedback is welcome!
